Ironing out hydrogenation : For the first time, an iron catalyst provided chemo‐ and stereo‐selective semi‐hydrogenation of alkynes to E ‐alkenes. This efficient, atom‐economical reaction is catalyzed by a novel acridine‐based PNP iron pincer catalyst and exhibits excellent functional group tolerance under mild, neutral, environmentally benign reaction conditions.
